Antilog Converter Linearizes Carbon Dioxide Sensor - EDN Design Ideas: 10/13/2014 Simplify gas sensor interface with some analog preprocessing - While most carbon dioxide sensors use IR technology, electrochemical sensors are a serious competitor because of their high sensitivity, wide measurement range, and low price. As a rule, electrochemical sensors connect to a microcontroller through a buffer amplifier with an extremely low bias current (<1pA). The micro is needed to linearize the logarithmic response of the sensor. __ Circuit Design by Design by Jordan Dimitrov

Catalytic Comustible Gas Sensor - Combustible gas mixtures will not burn until they reach an ignition temperature. However, in the presence of certain chemical media, the gas will start to burn or ignite at lower temperatures. This phenomenon is known as a catalytic combustion. Most metal oxides and their compounds have these catalytic properties__ International Sensor Technology

Gas Leakage Alarm - LPG gas is supplied in pressurised steel cylinders. As this gas is heavier than air, when it leaks from a cylinder it flows along floor and tends to settle in low...__ Electronics Projects for You
